ZEROâPLASTIC PACKAGING
NoâŻPlastic. NoâŻLevies. NoâŻCompromise
— ASKT’s ZeroâPlastic Paper Packaging Shields Your ChairsâŻand Your Margins
BURDENDED WITH HIGH ANNUAL
PLASTIC TAX?
The EU already charges⯀0.80 for every kilogram of nonârecycled plastic packaging, generating⯀7.2âŻbillion in 2023—and member states are passing that cost straight to importers.
National levies stack on top: the UK’s Plastic Packaging Tax jumps toâŻ£223.69 perâŻtonne in AprilâŻ2025, while Spain adds⯀0.45 perâŻkg, rapidly inflating your yearly compliance bill.

Lower unit costs
Paper honeycomb and kraft tape cut average packaging spend by ≈âŻ15âŻ% and shave freight weight.
